Arcade Dire Guy: they're good as in the kind of good band that headlines festivals and plays venues like MSG. Not to say that every band who does that is good but it must mean they're doing something right

The Captain and Tennille sold a lot of records and played big halls as well. Doesn't mean anything when it comes to artistic worth.

Yes, and cheap porn outsells tickets for the opera, and McDonald's does more business than Chez Panisse, and Limbaugh squawks to larger audiences than NPR can draw, and always and forever hateful lying drivel everywhere drives out the good and the thoughtful, and only idiots equate attracting the huge audience of morons in America with accomplishment.

wow, all the hate, so f*ed up. Here is a band on a small INDIE label who is going to sell out 2 nights at Madison Square Garden. That's awesome, we should all be thrilled by this, the idea that sometimes good music can cut through the crap, and the fact that a band on MERGE has done this, there is nothing but good about this!

"only idiots equate attracting the huge audience of morons in America with accomplishment."

yes I think attracting the crowd in the first place is an accomplishment when they were once an indie band playing the back of bars. But thats what happens when the world realizes you are too big for the room-they dismiss you and pretend you were only good on your first album

Wonderful post and the location is beautiful and elegant in design and information and everything>>> to Favorites
Amazing is an enormous understatement. One of the best electronic shows I've ever been to and I've seen well over a thousand concerts. I had no idea Vladislav Delay was as good a drummer & percussionist as he is- fabulous and he kept everything swinging with a very unique style of playing. If you missed this you missed out big time...
